Export to Figma is a browser extension for turning live websites into editable Figma designs. It lets designers capture a page or a specific element, then paste the result into Figma with layers, styles, and structure intact.
What it offers
The product is built for fast UI transfer, not flat screenshots. It preserves the visual building blocks that matter in design work, including fonts, colors, spacing, images, and layer hierarchy. That makes it useful when you need to study an existing interface, recreate a layout, or move a web page into a working Figma file without starting from scratch.
It also supports modern AI-built websites and apps, which is practical for teams working across code and design. Pages created in tools like Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, Vercel, and similar environments can be captured and moved into Figma for editing.
Who it suits
Export to Figma is aimed at:
- UI and product designers who need editable references instead of screenshots
- Developers who want to inspect live interfaces and pass them into design workflows
- Product teams iterating on real web experiences
- Freelancers and agencies handling client work under time pressure
Core workflow
The extension follows a simple path: install it in the browser, open a site, export the page or a section, then paste into Figma. The result is intended to be ready for immediate editing rather than reconstruction. It also includes support for responsive layouts and image extraction, which helps preserve the original structure of the page more faithfully.
Where it fits
Export to Figma is most useful when the source of truth already exists in the browser and the next step is design refinement. It fits interface teardown, rapid redesign, and handoff work where preserving the original layout matters more than generating a new concept from text prompts. For teams that move between live products and Figma frequently, it reduces the friction of rebuilding UI by hand.
